You Love to Fail Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Maybe tomorrow I'll see love in your eyes
And mine will dry
Maybe tomorrow we can learn how to fly
On these nasty little wings

[Chorus]
And I wanna take you out, but you always refuse
'Cause you only play the games that you know you can lose
You love to fail, that's all you love

[Verse 2]
We don't know why you've been gone
Somebody said you're on the run
You're living where wild horses run
Well, hey, whatever turns you on

[Chorus]
And I wanna take you out, but you always refuse
'Cause you only play the games that you know you can lose
You love to fail, that's all you love

[Bridge]
I'll be your confidante
Come and go as you please
I'll honor and protect my Wagner in dungarees
[Chorus] (x2)
And I wanna take you out, but you always refuse
'Cause you only play the games that you know you can lose
You love to fail, that's all you love

And I wanna take you out, but you always refuse
'Cause you only play the games that you know you can lose
You love to fail, that's all you love

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
